Canadian singer, The Weeknd has caused a frenzy online after releasing his new single, ‘Smile’. This is because the title is already taken by StarBoy singer, WizKid.

“the official title is “SMILE””.
Although this is not the first time that a particular song title would be used by different artists, fans of WizKid are shocked at the level of coincidence between the two musicians.
